HCJ 9961/03, 639/04 The Association for Civil Rights in Israel et al. v. Commander of IDF Forces in the Judea and Samaria Area - Response on behalf of the State
In its response to the petitions of HaMoked and ACRI on the illegality of the separation wall's permit regime, the state expands on the permit regime and provides data on the scope of land expropriations for the wall's construction; the number of residents affected; the number of permits issued for entry to the "seam zone" and its gates and passages. On the legal aspect, the state claims the "seam zone" was proclaimed a "closed area" on security grounds and the subsequent permit regime form an integral part of the separation-wall construction project and meet both Israeli and international law, and that both petitions are general and so should be rejected outright.
